Fortus has done a lot of work over the years so these tracks may not really be the full picture. Ron also added parts to everything he said. Frank also must have done stuff.
There was a Fortus track called Tonto, but it wasn't a gnr track and sounds nothing like this Tonto.
Not sure if Fortus is on any of these 19 discs at all.
What Fortus track?
There was a track on Fortus's website called Tonto. Just a short instrumental sample piece that has nothing to do with GN'R.

It’s all a bit of a shambles.
I read a headline in The Sun, Corbyn to tax cars 60%? Really going to turn people off.
Also claimed he was a spy for the Czech Republic during the cold war.
The tabloids are beyond farcial.

The shindig has got to start trending again.
If not, it will definitely start coasting on fumes and half arena syndrome will impact them just like it did during the CD years.
atlas was reworked in 2017 by slash and duff and hardschool was 2018 and the general has been put up for consideration and the 96 sessions have also been put for consideration
Atlas?

I read Bucket re-recorded Oklahoma at some point?
So those or these are Finck mostly on guitar?
Wasn’t there a theory that Hardschool was also Jackie Chan recorded for a movie by Slash/Duff?
Bucket probably did re-record Oklahoma. Just not on this version. Any of the tracks dated March are just mixes of tracks the previous year.
Everything with vocals here seem to be from summer 99 at least. Bucket didn't meet axl till xmas 99 and Finck left the band in August 99 for a while.
So unless it's dated mid 00 or later (like hardschool for example) it's likely not Bucket.
Oklahoma was a finished track by the end of 2000, it was on the original House of Blues set list, but not played. It also got renamed Berlin at some point over the next few years.
Also Oklahoma probably existed in an even earlier version in the late 90s. Very possible Slash or Duff played on the original/unfinished version (not on on these discs).
One of the last songs by the band before Slash left was meant to be on the ost of a Jackie Chan film. We don't know much about it. It is possible that it's Hardschool/Checkmate that Axl once called Jackie Chan, but have no idea. It might be completely concidental or not. Either way I think Bucket is likely on this mix of the track doing the shredding.
Worth pointing out too, this is 20 years old. The Hardschool that's on the current setlists as an alternative, might sound radically different.

Hardschool and Oklahoma are just fantastic. Very much like the Guns we're used to. State of Grace, something about it just doesn't hold up to close scrutiny. I can't place my finger on it.
I too wish I knew who was playing on these tracks. I can't pick out Bucket with 100% certainty, as much of an "expert" on Bucket that I am. None of his trademark tricks are apparent, unless I missed them.
Bucket isn't on Oklahoma or State of Grace. Both March mixes of early tracks. Probably summer 99.
As for Hardschool, it's November 2000. Plenty of time for Bucket to add too it. I assumed the shredding towards the end was him?

Vote for your least favourite track. The track with the most votes will be eliminated.
As far as the instrumentals go, try to imagine the track finished with vocals.
This is based on Rough Mixes Disc 3 only, not any other demo. If 2 tracks are tied, the 3rd wins.
Voting closes Thursday 19:00 GMT.
